In the early 70's, I was second shift manager at the Hertz operation at what was then Baltimore Washington Int’l AP. When it snowed, things got real slow and boring. So, for entertainment, we would take the biggest cars on the lot, T-Birds, Lincolns, etc., out to the parking lots and slide them around like idiots.…

Girls just want to have fun!

If the body is as clean as it looks in the pictures, this is the ideal project car. No rust to fix, no paint needed.

Many years ago I bought a used Mazda RX2, about 4 years old. The back seat and side panels STILL had the original plastic from the factory. I thought that was pretty cool.

You people just figuring this out? I’m 73 years old and I figured this out around the time I turned 21. You all are late to the party.

I drive a ‘91 RX7 FC convertible on a pretty regular basis. The car always amazes me as to how far advanced and comfortable it still is in comparison to other newer cars I have driven.

My wife and I had an Aero T Bird that suddenly didn’t want to shift. Not knowing anything about automatic transmissions, I took it to the local dealer who charged me $100+ for a trans flush and such. Didn’t work. Return to the deal again, they swore thy could not make it duplicate the problem.

It has always been my impression that the TVR guys build a really nice looking car, and then they head down to the local junkyard to find an engine that might fit. 

A couple of weeks ago, the local sheriff sent a car to one of my neighbor’s houses for I-don’t-know-what. They were there for about three hours, during which the car just sat there running.

NOT a motorcycle. Sorry.

Guess I’ll have to get rid of my Jeep Grand Cherokee because Biden won.

My third car, a mid 60's TR4. Been a Little British Car nut since.

Soon after I moved to Florida many years ago, I came across a 280ZX sitting in a little used car lot for $495. I stopped, got the key and the thing ran great. The interior was a mess, and the paint was pretty much sun bleached, but WTH $495!!!!!

Sauerkraut. Yup. Actually not a Maryland thing, but definitely, without a doubt, a must have with Turkey in any home in the Baltimore area. Don’t know why, but it wasn’t until I was married and moved out of the area that I found that sauerkraut wasn’t a mandatory part of Thanksgiving (and Christmas) dinner.

My son and DIL bought one of these back when they were new. They still have it. To my knowledge, they have never had major problems with it.

I remember when Ford introduced the new body style while I was working at Towson Ford. I could not get over how they had taken one of the most beautiful cars (the ‘64, ‘65 and ‘67 TBirds) and turned it into something so ugly I hated to be seen in it. 

The drivers are not the only ones who “lost” in California. My Daughter is one of many “gig” workers in the entertainment industry in the San Francisco area. Already suffering the hardships of the Covid 19 quarantine, she and her fellow entertainers are going to be adversely affected by this.

Come on people, it’s a 32 year old pickup truck! Useful, nice to have when you need one, etc., but not at this price for this age. It’s not even an extended cab, which I have decided is an absolutely must have for a truck to be useful. Trucks like this can be had down here in Florida for half the price.

The thing about the Marlin was that they didn’t widen the track like Pontiac did. It really did look kind of like a fish out of water with all of that body hanging over those wheels. Handled like one, too, if I recall.

This may be a sign from God, I’m not sure. About two hours after reading this article, I was out dropping the top on my RX7 when what should drive by on my actual street? Yup. One of these Porsches. Damn thing looked pretty nice, too.
